A new colleague today was vaping pre made melon, but said he had some honeydew juice before home made by someone and he loved it. I tried his and it was very generic watermelon flavour and to be honest a bit minging……. So I thought I'd grab a few concentrates and show him mixing as he sounded interested in the whole idea..
What Honeydew concentrates are out there? have you tried them?

scaffman69 and clivealive1 , a mech runs at what the battery outputs at the time. A fully charged battery will be about 4.2v but drop to about 3.7 for most of its discharge. Once it goes below that you should feel a drop off in performance and get the battery back on charge. You might not get that voltage under load due to conductivity of the mod and the battery's ability to keep up with the load. It is unregulated. Didn't read the other thread, but you can work out the wattage you will get by using this ohms law calculator - theecigstop.com/ecal.htm - assume the battery is 3.7v, you just need to put in the resistance of the iclears coil, which wouldn't be less than 1.6 ohms i imagine - as it happens, a 1.6 ohm coil at 3.7v is about 8.5W  but if the coil is 2.4 ohms, you get only 5.7W. Mechs are great, but need lower ohm atty's to make the most of them, otherwise a regulated mod is better - or you can use a kick as mentioned (but I'm a purist - couldn't kick a mod) If you do fancy a mech, it's good to spend a while with regulated mods and experimenting with different voltages or wattages so you can recognise how they feel before going to a mech as you don't have any protection against over discharging your battery too far. You don't use protected batteries in a mech. It is up to you to protect yourself and your kit.

What Karma said - the provari is universally known as the benchmark that all other mods can't live up to Incidentally, you should be able to get isopropyl in most chemists. Please let us know how cleaning went - if it fixed your problems. |

Must say that you kind of get what you pay for. Vamos are cheap. I haven't heard of anyone have a problem with a Provari +ve pin  |

Yep its the only RDA I've got or want! Need to use it more often now my mech mod is operational. Ideal for testing mixes! It is great, find myself wondering if should buy a spare so can use if let wool get burnt instead of having to find a moment to rewick. Not sure if would want another type, all reviews have been great for v1 compared to other rdas which are mixed, though didn't see review for v2 which i've got. May get couple of v1s for comparison of slowtech when get around to it, sure theyll be great but look much more of a pain to seperate. You can have my v1 if you want it - i don't plan to use it anymore. I find the Atomic much better (can you tell i love the atomic?  ) |

boyofford I don't do dual coils mate, i always lay my mod down so i'd get leakage and that upsets me, so i go for a single Does the v2 have thread all the way up the 510 connector? The problem with the v1 is that it don't have much thread and the nemesis threads are also short, the two end up just going through each other and the atty ends up being a bit lose if you know what i mean. You should be good with .3, i found mine on ebay from germany as it comes on a nice spool. I got some from the mesh co. and their spool was way too small with the wire all over the place, bulging out over the edge. As soon as i removed the tape the whole lot sprung out everywhere

You should be able to get rid of the whistle by moving the afc ring a touch, just changing the alignment of the two holes can get rid of it I was using .45mm about 7-9 wraps around 2mm getting .9 ohms on my atomic, just rebuilt it with 7 of .32 around a 1.2mm and getting .7 ohms - a much quicker heat up and still a fairly tough coil. Can't remember what i used in my trident, not used it since i got the atomic as the trident don't play nice on a nemesis (both clones - i'm a cheapskate ) |

It could be that your charger isn't charging the batteries fully. What charger is it? Do you have another one? Do they work fine in other mods?

That sounds nice - I'll have to get the concentrates next time I do some buying Daft question, what's EM? |

but if the coil is 2.4 ohms, you get only 5.7W. Mechs are great, but need lower ohm atty's to make the most of them, otherwise a regulated mod is better - or you can use a kick as mentioned (but I'm a purist - couldn't kick a mod)
